What Ore-ida Products Are Gluten-free? And Which Are Not.

[amber-rose]

Hi! Sorry I'm posting so many questions about products, but I'm really new to Celiacs. I'm just wondering what Ore-Ida products are gluten-free and which are not. Also is there any websites or books that lists gluten-free items? Thanks for all the help!!!

Most companies have thier own website or 800 number. You'll find many lists, but they might not be up-to-date.

A lot of Ore Ida products are gluten-free. But some are not - as always, read the label. We eat the tater tots a lot. You may also want to find McCain projects (smiley fries, and other potatoes) or Alexia - both say gluten-free on the package and are yummy!!

Good luck!

Unfortunately Ore-Ida isn't one of those companies where you can "just read the label". I know that I once ate their frozen mashed potatoes only to get sick. Called and found out they were not gluten free even though nothing on their label looked questionable. My point being that this isn't a company that you can rely on their labeling only. You MUST go by their list to stay safe.

They do offer a gluten free list. If you e-mail them they will send it out. It has lots of stuff on it!!

I suggest you make a list of all of the foods you eat on a regular basis. Sit down and start sending e-mails out. This is the best way and most reliable way of finding out if something is gluten free.

I have to second that last post -- the Ore-Ida tater tots are on Heinz's list of gluten-free products, but I did have a slight reaction after eating some last night (not too debilitating, but definitely a reaction and definitely from the tots). I think they must be produced in a facility which also processes things containing gluten, so it's a cross-contamination risk which may depend on your level of sensitivity.

I ate some Mini Tator Tots by Ore Ida this morning. Soy was the only allergen listed, so I assumed they were safe. I did feel sick after eating them, so now I am wondering if there is an issue with CC. Has anyone else had this problem?

key, i have never had a cc issuse with them, if they where the extra crispy form, they have lots of extra soy so you could be slightly sensative

as for having to check the labels very carefully, that is not true, heinz the company that makes orida is owned by kraft that will clearly lable gluten in there products, if u look underneeth the ingrediants it will have in bold black what allergines it containes,

I know there are "offical" lists out there from them, unfortuntly they have not updated those lists since adding 4 new types of extra crispys, the only flavor/type of orida frys i have found at all that have gluten is the mini hashbrowns, the regular ones are only soy but for some reson they use wheat for the minis. of course always check the bags, but im a religiuse orida fan and i wont give bad advice

Heinz is NOT a kraft company. They are two seperate very large food companies. Each even has their own stock on the New York Stock exchange.

and you DO have to check the labels very carefully. You check ANY label very carefully, kraft company or any other company........please be careful of the advice that you are giving out. You can make someone sick by being so careless.

As for Ore-ida/Heinz.........you HAVE to go by their list. Otherwise you'll end up sick.

hienze is a divison of kraft, not owend but a division however that works, it even says kraft on the bag if you look for it. And they do clearly label allergens including weat (yes always read bags/labels always- i put that in my post) i was simply saying that they will always list allergens

The only way the two companies are related is that they both make food. Heinz uses lists, they do not clearly label.

And heinz will always disclose wheat, as they are required to do by law, since wheat is a top 8 allergen. They will hide all other gluten containing grains.

I have searched all over my Ore-Ida bag and there is no Kraft label. Did a google search of heinz and kraft. Nada.......they are NOT linked. Like Chelsea said, the only way they are linked is that they both make food.

They are required by law to list the top 8 allergens. However, rye, barley and oats are not in the top 8. Ore-ida is a company in which you MUST go strictly by their list and not only by reading labels.

Where's the gluten free list that contains Ore Ida tater tots? It's not listed on the Ore Ida website.

We have also eaten the tater tots but I guess we'll be stopping.

I worked for Ore-Ida in Fort Myers, Florida where we made Bagel Bites (before I became gluten-intolerant). Ore-Ida is owned by Heinz.
